Cheesecake-DN Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 The old one was broken and awful, and we had it for years. This is the new one that actually works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azeriah-KT Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I've had times where I go to log in on the website and it redirects me to the old forums. Quite annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they did server merge I don't it's so difficult to do a forum merge lol It's extremely difficult because it's two completely different forum software that don't appear to be cross-compatible with each other. Server merge is same software, same structure, and same data. Plus the old forum contains 7 years worth of data, and that would just deadweight the new forums. My 24k posts don't need to come over here. Supposedly, the old forums aren't staying up forever, but they're super useful when someone gets some weird error and I need to google what the prior fixes were for it.
